Accepted Answer

bad smell sweat like urine during stress requires a multi-faceted approach. Here's a comprehensive plan:

Medical Treatment

1. Antiperspirants: Use antiperspirants containing aluminum salts (e.g., aluminum chloride) to reduce sweat.
2. Antibacterial soaps: Use antibacterial soaps to reduce bacteria that contribute to body odor.
3. Deodorants: Apply deodorants containing fragrances or antimicrobial agents to help mask or reduce odor.

Lifestyle Changes

1. Hydration: Drink plenty of water to help your body regulate its temperature and sweat more efficiently.
2. Diet: Avoid foods that can make sweat smell worse, such as garlic, onions, or spicy foods.
3. Exercise: Regular exercise can help reduce stress and anxiety, but shower or bathe as soon as possible after exercising.
4. Clothing: Wear breathable, natural-fiber clothing to help keep you cool and dry.
5. Stress management: Engage in stress-reducing activities, such as meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises

Possible Diagnoses*

1. *Fordyce spots*: Small, white or yellowish bumps on the scrotum, caused by blocked sebaceous glands.

*Treatment Advice*

1. *Consult a doctor*: Schedule an appointment with a primary care physician, urologist, or dermatologist to determine the underlying cause.
2. *Keep the area clean*: Wash the scrotum with mild soap and warm water to prevent bacterial or fungal infections.
3. *Avoid scratching*: Scratching can lead to further irritation, infection, or scarring.
4. *Topical creams or ointments*: Your doctor may prescribe topical treatments, such as hydrocortisone cream or antibiotic ointments, to reduce inflammation or fight infections.

I've got these lumps under my skin, which I've learned are called lipomas. They're not painful, but I'm curious if there's any treatment or medication out there that could get rid of them. The doctors Ive spoken to say they're harmless and don't requ...

Question 6

Hi there, I've got a mole on my face that's been bothering me. It seems to be growing and there's even a hair coming out of it. I've also had a couple of keloids before, right on my sternum, which I got after shaving my chest about five years ago. Th...

Accepted Answer

I recommend opting for radiofrequency shave excision for removing the mole on your face, as this method typically results in less scarring compared to complete mole excision. The chances of developing a keloid in place of the mole are relatively low, especially since you mentioned that you have not experienced keloids in other areas of your body. The risk of recurrence after radiofrequency shave excision is minimal, and this method is generally safe and effective for removing moles. It's understandable that you are concerned about developing keloids, but based on your history and the location of the mole, the likelihood of this happening is low. If you have any specific concerns or questions, feel free to ask.
